The barest trace of wood remains on the nose to frame the elegant, pure and almost airy white flower and green apple aromas that are beginning to display the initial signs of pending maturity that merge seamlessly into intense, powerful, brooding, thick, fantastically intense flavors that are wonderfully textured and stain the palate. This is quite masculine in style and the intensity does a slow but inexorable build from the mid-palate to an explosive finish. A flat out wonderful Monty that should last two decades with the proper cellaring though it should be drinking well relatively soon.
